    Naah. We're just not biting on your logically fallacious distraction. It's functionally a non-issue, and to the extent it's an issue, it's being played out in all the wrong places, in all the wrong ways. And the fact that it aligns, as a "crisis issue," almost perfectly with the exact same people who want to erase trans people and gay people from society, is a pretty big fucking tell. Leave them the fuck alone. Quit picking on the weak and marginalized. And yes, that includes picking on them by the proxy of "it's their evil libtard parents who are turning them queer."

    Many of us think evidence-based examination of gender dysphoria and treatments should be a thing, and don't have a problem with an honest discussion of it. What we see right through is making something that affects 0.0005% of the population a crisis issue that merits major attention. In the US, 2,000 kids receive such treatment. Again, all with the consent of their parents and under a doctor's care. They're not being killed, they're just receiving treatment that is subject to medical debate. 190 kids died in car wrecks because they were unrestrained. Nearly 4,000 people a year drown. Nearly 7,000 people accidentally suffocate. Globally, around 3 million children starve to death each year. The degree of "concern" for an issue that is, statistically speaking, a non-issue, to the point that those who are so "concerned" about it will toss in their lot with the most openly cruel political movement since the 1940s....well, see, that's where the true colors come through. It ain't about protecting kids at all. If it WAS, the "concerned" people would be in favor of things that actually kept kids safe, and fed them, and shit like that. They aren't. They are willing to SACRIFICE all of those things, to make a stand on their pet issue. Me? I mostly think we should leave people the fuck alone, including families who are wrestling with a goddamned difficult thing involving their child, who they love and are trying to make the best decision for. I agree that there are psychological and medical issues and concerns in play; I think those should be hashed out in, among, and by the medical community (which seems to be happening - it is a process, which is to be expected for a situation that has only in recent years even been accepted as something to be considered by medical practitioners). Let it get sorted out, and know that inevitably, someone may end up hurt by the fact that the process takes time; if medical treatment of gender dysphoria turns out to be a bad thing, then some kids got a treatment that they shouldn't have. Likewise, if medical treatment of gender dysphoria turns out to be a solid treatment...but we've banned it on the political level....then some kids who should have received a treatment that will help them were denied that treatment. But of course, none of that matters. That's not what this is about. At all. It's about item 7,547 in dividing society into "normal" people who get to shit all over "the other" -- we can't shit on those poor kids, of course....so we place our hatred on the evil parents of those dirty trans. THEY are the ones turning people trans! There wouldn't BE any trans people if those stupid evil parents didn't do their evil! Add it to the pile. It's not about caring for the ultimate outcome or kindness. It's about carving out a group, aiming your ire at them, and feeling superior for doing so. That's how we roll these days.

    Correct. See, kindness is found in deciding that addressing that issue....in which around 2,000 kids in the entire United States, with the consent of both their parents and treating physician, are receiving such medication for gender dysphoria....is SO important that you must, you simply MUST, support and elect a regime that will shut off food aid to the starving, cancel food trucks on their way to food banks and schools, stop AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis treatment programs, deport US citizen children, etc. etc. etc. Won't someone think of the children???? No, not THOSE children. Not the hungry children. Not the children with or at risk of deadly illnesses. Fuck THOSE kids. And fucking THOSE kids is all worth it, if we can only tackle this, the most important issue that humanity has ever faced, which affects 0.0005% of the entire population.
  7. He should have someone say "I don't believe you. The kind of person who holds beliefs that inhuman, that loathsome, is EXACLTY the kind of person who would lie about it today. Give us one good reason that we should think that yesterday's loathsome nazi is today's contrite good guy....instead of what nazis always have been and always are: fucking liars and deceivers."
  8. You ARE the filthy public. So, that may be a problem.
  9. Oh, you missed my other tool: fear. See how the Trump admin is going after all of its enemies? Yeah....the opposition needs to do that. It needs to do it tenfold. It needs to go after these people everywhere, where they live, in their pocketbook, go after their families. Not a moment's peace, not a moment's rest, basking in any victory. Only fear of "what's next? And how will it hurt my livelihood and peace of mind?" Trumpism is about relentless assaults on your enemy to cause fear. It works. So do it more, and do it better. Those are the tools of the era. Use them.
  10. What a fucking LOSER you are. As I understood it, the only relevant TNG question was "Counselor Troi or Dr. Crusher?" And of course, the correct answer was always "both."
  11. They are legitimized because we haven’t made a concerted effort to destroy them, shame them, and ruin every element of their lives, professional and personal. Which is what you should do with Nazi pieces of shit.

    Sure it is. We HAD to appoint MAGA to save all those poor kids whose parents and doctors are poisoning them. All fallout from that is fair game. You made your choice. Thousands of dead, totally worth it.
  13. Yep. You win by playing your opponent, not by strutting around the chess board. Sacrifice a pawn, rope him into giving you the checkmate you're aiming for as he's gloating over the pawn he "totally destroyed, the likes of which no one has ever seen before!" -- that's a win.

    They're materially greater than zero. Shutting down PEPFAR, malaria, and tuberculosis programs....that kills people. And food aid...well, none of that was feeding anyone at risk of death from starvation, clearly. Jesus, your beclowning is a limitless font.
  15. Brisketexan

    LBGTQ

    Clearly, it's a crisis that merits the extreme action of elevating MAGA to all levels of government: Contrast that with the estimated excess deaths caused thus far by the cessation of USAID activities for just the past couple of months (which was apparently a top priority for the admin who is going to save us from the epidemic of trans kids): 89,000 dead kids, because we must do EVERYTHING to make sure that 2,000 teens, under the care of a physician (who may be making a good call or a bad call), don't receive hormone blockers? TOTALLY WORTH IT.

    LBGTQ

    I was told that the epidemic of kids changing their gender was going to end humanity. Was that false?
  17. Huh. A forward-thinking US government, building on natural alliances and partnerships with Europe, could build a win-win-win scenario where US LNG both solves a European energy gap for decades, and increases US exports of a valuable commodity (you know....exports....that thing that balances out "imports," which helps close a "trade gap"). Oh well.

    Also, living in Texas, you know very will that this is a flat-out lie. It is not political rhetoric, it's a cornerstone of the party's beliefs:

    Cool. Tell us how this: Leads to this: What is the "natural conclusion" of some minors receiving hormone treatments that causes "humanity to literally cease?" "IF EVERYONE IS GAY AND ONLY FUCKS OTHER GAYS THEN NOBODY WILL HAVE BABIES AND HUMANITY IS DOOMED!"....says Ana, and that dumb fucking redneck in the bar we all had to listen to back in the 70s and 80s. There's a fucking metric shitton of daylight between "some parents approve hormone treatment for their minor kids, and that should be objectively medically evaluated" and "Humanity literally ceases when this biological absurdity plays out to its natural conclusion." But Ana gonna Ana, because whatever a MAGA would say, that's what Ana says.
  20. Easy peasy. Stop maintaining the street in front of the embassy, stop delivering water, stop taking sewage...because all of those municipal entities follow local DEI-type rules, and we KNOW the embassy doesn't want to receive any DEI services. Malicious compliance and all that.

    I mean, there you have it, folks. Acknowledging that gay and trans people exist, and maybe we shouldn't treat them as subhumans, means that we're all gonna turn gay and stop having sex between males and females. Yep, that's it. Gays existing = the end of the species. I've never seen someone so utterly debase themselves so quickly as we've seen Ana turn full MAGA around here, and we've seen Derka posts.
  22. This. We can never change their minds - they're too stupid. We can never change their hearts - they're too cruel. What we CAN change is their willingness to visit their shittiness on the rest of us. Beat them back into their hole with the time-honored weapons of fear and shame. They speak fear fluently. Speak it back to them. Giant pieces of shit don't respond to this: They only respond to this -- both literally and metaphorically: They are using the force of the state (the entity that has a monopoly on legal violence -- you know, that gun barrel posted above) against the rest of us, as we speak. Speak their language back to them, it's the only thing they understand. Shame them. Shun them. Crush them. Ruin them. Punish them. Make it miserable for them to even exist. Pummel them until they run back to their hidey holes, where we need to isolate them forever.
  23. This. On DT, right now, we have a Trump apologist claiming that our pushback on the Trump admin's idea to sell our national parks is "hysterical." No. See, the only sane answer to any admin, ever, proposing to sell off our National Parks, is "that is a horrific idea and among the worst things you could ever think or propose." Instead, it gets the litany of excuses of "he probably won't do it," which will soon turn into "so what if he does? Some of them probably need to be sold off!" to "why are you against paying down our debt by selling assets?!?!" In other words, we've taken horrific ideas that should get the reaction of an immediate punch in the face, and instead we allow this: No. The only proper response to nazi shit is to grant it no voice, no legitimacy, and to punch anyone espousing it in the fucking face.
  24. Hey now...target audience is women over 50, uses garbage to trick older women.....
